He was through this country in the early days and spent years as a deputy United States marshal in the Territory. He has, it is said, been a voter in nearly every state in the union. Until his recent attack of grip, Mr. Mounts had always been a strong, hearty man and his sudden death will be a severe shock to his relatives."
